Drone Killers

[J Brown]

Saw this and many other companies displaying similar items while I was at a recent defense contractor show. While this is obviously military grade equipment and very expensive, it proves the technology already exists to bring down drones. Curious as to how long it takes before this reaches the commercial market in a cheaper operational version. Something to think about in such a rapid growing industry.

So, the dronebuster is some sort of jamming device then?

I assume so. I did see others that displayed drones with damage and holes through them that obviously fire projectiles but I think for the most part companies are developing technology that jams the signals.

Theres not many places in the U S were they could legally use any thing to bring down a drone.

This is a type of jamming device however the US military also have a vehicle mounted laser device used against drones which is capable of pin point accuracy with a range of well over 10km
